Colfondo

7.60

Our “Colfondo” represents the traditional wine of Valdobbiadene, produced according to a rustic winemaking method involving natural refermentation in the bottle. It is differentiated by the presence of a yeast deposit at the bottom of the bottle that gives creamy notes and evolved hints of bread crust. Due to its dryness and delicate fizz, it is much appreciated for its lightness and digestibility.
